(Disclaimer: Click 'more' to see ad disclosure)Areli Hobbs from @yesto_travel is the oldest child of a Mexican immigrant family born with the desire to travel the world. Now as a millennial woman in her 30s she is ready to fulfill the travel dreams she never thought possible, all thanks to leveraging credit card points. Areli works a regular 9-5 and supports her husband while he finishes college and she plans to go back to school herself to be a Registered Nurse. In her first year of points and miles she has already been on three trips using points all while coordinating school schedules and a full time job.In this episode, Areli and I discuss the illusion of the internet when it comes to points and miles. A lot of the accounts you see online do points as their full time job, or they are working towards that, and the redemptions you see on your Instagram might feel really out of reach. This episode is to remind you that for every crazy Instagrammable redemption you see, there are hundreds of redemptions where someone is just starting out and saving hundreds instead of thousands of dollars, and that is just as magical as a $20k first class flight.If you are just getting started with points and miles, one of the most popular starter card combinations is the Chase Trifecta, which includes the Chase Sapphire Preferred, Chase Freedom Flex, and Chase Freedom Unlimited.Chase Sapphire Preferred: https://milevalue.com/creditcards/chase-sapphire-preferred/?aff=gbtChase Freedom Flex: https://milevalue.com/creditcards/chase-freedom-flex/?aff=gbtChase Freedom Unlimited: https://milevalue.com/creditcards/chase-freedom-unlimited/?aff=gbtAwardLogic: https://www.geobreezetravel.com/awardlogicTimestamps:((((((((==You can find Areli at:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/yesto_travelYou can find Julia at:Start here: https://www.geobreezetravel.com/starthereWebsite: https://www.geobreezetravel.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/geobreezetravelCredit card links: https://www.geobreezetravel.com/cardsMasterclasses: https://www.geobreezetravel.com/hangoutsPatreon to access recordings of masterclasses: https://www.patreon.com/geobreezetravelAward travel coaching call: https://www.geobreezetravel.com/calendlySign up for the newsletter and get exclusive access to sign up for free coaching calls: https://www.geobreezetravel.com/free-coachingGeobreeze Travel is part of an affiliate sales network and receives compensation for sending traffic to partner sites, such as milevalue .com.
